This video is about me, an Interior Designer in London. I’ve worked for some of the best in the business including; designer Kelly Hoppen to hi-end London developers. I’ve designed the finest houses in London, Hong Kong and New York. I hope you enjoy my brief story into what got me into luxury interior design, my inspirations and what I enjoy about designing interiors and spaces.
I really like designing spaces, designing interiors because there’s something about the moment when a person walks into a room and they really like how it looks, they feel good.
On one hand I’m quite a practical person but on the other I’m quite artistic as well. When you merge these two things together you end up designing the interiors.
You can’t design a space that no one can use. It can’t just beautiful. It also has to be practical.
Modern Interior Design
What I like about the modern interior design is that you have so many inspirations from your friends, from your family, from the people you just meet on the street; you learn about ideas, cultural trends, heritage, everyone showing you something new. You look at the architecture, you look at art and then you combine and come up with these amazing new ideas. The result is taking different materials, different shapes, forms, textures and concepts and creating the interiors with it.
What got me into it
When I was a kid we were living in the countryside next to big vast fields. I used to imagine things which got me into drawing. I wanted to do something creative so I went to the University of Art. It was never about a certain discipline. I just wanted to design and it somehow naturally evolved into interiors. When I moved to London the thing that I liked the most was the idea that you can design something that someone will use as a home later.
